The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
I think that here on extra-time there is more open space in the rink, which should help to benefit our skilled young Finnish lions. Looking good this far!
 
How are other teams goalies able to make difficult saves?

We should expect our goalie to only the save the easy ones/basic ones. We completely dominated the 60.

If we have this low expectations for our goalie maybe we should have similar for other players and be excited they scored 3?
OR MAYBE WE f***ING SCORE MORE THAN 3 IN A GAME WE ARE UTTERLY DOMINATING? [MOD]

Lol at people blaming Luukkonen on this "situation". A pp goal, breakaway and a redirectioned shot: goalie is to blame. Yeah, k. How about we finish our chances, we've had plenty.

Apparently you just expect a pylon in goal.

A championship team needs a goalie that can make more than standard saves
 
That's a good non-call considering how in the end of regulation they didn't call a holding call to FIN on a breakaway

Scoring is an issue, but acting like goaltending isn't is a huge????

How the hell can other goalies make tough saves, explain it please.
Cze has had like 4 chances in this game, and have scored 3.
 
They really should switch sides for these overtimes to get the longer line changes to create more scoring chances. The less shootouts the better.

How many "tough" saves Kronerar has had in this game? Anyways, this kind of a game is always a nightmare for goalies = not a whole lot of shots, but every one of them is dangerous.
 
They don't want to decide this game.
Which also decides the game to the more undisciplined side, since they can commit penalties.. without penalties.
It's a flawed way of reffing, but at least if nothing gets called, the precedent is that the better team wins which can adjust to that

Probably 5 times more than Luukkonen?

Watching the game helps, you wouldn't need to ask these questions. See the Kuokkanen save just a while ago for an example.
 
Shots 54-25ish and some are defending Luukkonen by saying 'Oh but Korenar hasn't made that many high danger saves''
but he has literally had twice more saves than Luukkonen.

Czechs have so much trouble getting the puck out of the defensive zone, even when they're not under pressure
